Well the first trail report looks good.Took it out to an area that was a combination of rock and wet river silt. They did really well until I bound up and broke a CVD and became 3-wheel drive and still did well as long as it wasn't relying on the broken corner for traction.

Sounds like it's time for you to get some universals

Is your rig Axial based? If yes Axial's universals are pretty good, unless you want to spend 3x more on Vanquish's VXDs

Yeah it's an Axial SCX10. Right now I have Axial CVDs that only have about 15 minutes on them before breakage. I haven't tore it apart yet but I suspect it was the small pin that broke.
